Joey McIntyre has a new baby girl! The newest kid in New Kid Joey McIntyre's clan arrived this week, his third child with wife Barrett Williams. “Kira Katherine McIntyre was born May 31st at 12:30 pm PST. 7 lbs., 3 oz., 21 in.,” Joey tweeted early Wednesday morning. "A beautiful baby girl with great timing and gorgeous hair."

Color us SHOCKED, Joey. That your progeny would come out fully coiffed pretty much EXACTLY aligns with our theory that your baby girl would emerge with the winnings of the genetic lottery. And P to the S? We love that you didn't name your kid after a food product or a piece of electronic equipment. It's a simple, yet beautiful baby name that won't get her teased on the playground. This one's for the children, Joey. Congrats!

Congratulations, Joey!

Joey McIntyre's been getting bizay! He's expecting his third child in three years, hereby proving entirely our theory that a man's virility is directly linked to the robustness of his brows. He and his wife, Barrett, are expecting a baby girl later this year, which he recently announced on the NKOTB Carnival Cruise over the weekend, according to Usmagazine.com. The New Kid and his wife (a lucky gal who gets to be THE Joey Girl that Joey Girls the world over have borderline criminal jealousy toward) already have two sons --3-year-old Griffin, and Rhys, who's 1.

We're PRETTY confident that their to-be-born little girl has hit the genetic lottery jackpot from both a looks and talent standpoint. No need to draw up a Punnett square to determine the probability that this child will inherit some pretty spectacularly recessive-gened big blue eyes and all-around gorgeous good looks. Right? Anywho, congrats, Joey McIntyre! We anticipate a fabulous "Summertime" (perhaps spent in Jones Beach, as you did in 1988?) for you and your growing brood.

And in case you were wondering, we'll still Be Loving You Forever, even if you have 10 kids. Trust.

You may be too old to remember when Joey McIntyre was the youngest New Kid On The Block, but now he's all grown up and part of the boy band supergroup NKOTSBSB, which is a combination of the New Kids and the Backstreet Boys (see: amazing). So, Joey's doing pretty well for himself, especially after NKOTSBSB's single, "Don't Turn Off The Lights Now," left us extra excited for the tour, on which all nine -- nine! -- members will be embarking this summer. Two generations of crazed fans -- luckily, we were old enough to live through fold-out posters of both Joey McIntyre and Nick Carter --unite!!

And "Joey Mac," as he was better known back in the day, doesn't just sing anymore, either. Dude can act, too. Recently, Joey tweeted some photos snapped of himself dressed up like a cop for a guest appearance on the show "Psych."

We have to say that while the guy still looks adorbz, we're on team Litrell fa lyf. It's just the rules of boy band jungle, y'all.

The only thing better than NKOTB (New Kids On The Block), as you know, is NKOTBSB (New Kids On The Block + Backstreet Boys). In fact, the 1988 version of us is sort of swooning in our oatmeal right now, because 2011 us is actually listening to the new NKOTBSB song "Don't Turn Off The Lights Now" WHILE we catch up on what's been going on with Jessica and Elizabeth Wakefield in the just-released Sweet Valley Confidential. It's a perfect storm of decades past, and we are LOVING it.

“Don’t Turn Off the Lights” was first previewed in December to fans aboard the Backstreet Boys cruise, and now the track has finally been released. Though the two boy bands have been touring together since last year, this song is their first collaborative effort.

"Don't Turn Off The Lights Now" has a pure pop beat, and the two respective boy bands' voices blend so seamlessly, it's hard to remember there was, indeed, a seam between them. Employing our hard-hitting journalism skillz, we're pretty sure we could discern the voice of Backstreet Boy Brian Littrell, who starts off the song. Our well-honed Joey McIntyre radar (once a Joey Girl, always a Joey Girl) identifies him singing, "Just when I think it through" in the second verse. The lyrics maintain that singularly boy-band quality of translating romantic sentiments into "let's-go-a-courtin'" language every pubescent girl dreams of. In other words, it's everything we want it to be. And more.

+ Listen to NKOTBSB's "Don't Turn Off The Lights Now."

+ Joe Jonas has this thing for dating his costars. (See: Taylor Swift and, more recently, Camilla Belle). So how can he avoid catching the "Lovebug?" "Just put boys in [your] videos from now on," suggests Selena Gomez. Ha! But seriously, yeah. (Usmagazine.com)

I JUST got back from one of the most enviable spots in all of New York. No, not the set of Gossip Girl. I was just backstage at Madison Square Garden (which brought back major mems from my time spent back there with the Jonas Brothers -- I half expected to see Kevin Jonas zoom by on a Segway), where I interviewed Donnie Wahlberg and Jordan Knight, of past and present New Kids on the Block fame, IN THEIR DRESSING ROOM, surrounded by their button-down shirts, tube socks, other wardrobe staples, and cough drops. I EVEN SAW THE PASSWORD TO THEIR WIRELESS INTERNET! ZOMGZ!

But first, let me back up and provide you, the die-hard New Kids/ NKOTB/ The Block fan with a few more selections from the scene.

Highlights of this opportunity of a lifetime included:
+ Jordan jumping on a couch, laying down, and jokingly declaring it was time for a nap.

+ ... At which point Joey then jumped on top of him.

+ Joey expressing shock when he found out TRL was canceled (we're sad too!) and declaring that they should've had him host.

+ A brief discussion between Jordan, Donnie, Joe and myself about the rise and fall of the music video. I told them that between "Thriller" and "Hangin' Tough," videos pretty much peaked. LOLs ensued, and I about died from making New Kids LOL!

+ Jordan asking me where catering was. BECAUSE WE'RE SUPERHARDCORE FRIENDS NOW! I got back to work and saw that he'd Facebooked me... Okay, we're neither superhardcore besties nor Facebook friends (relax, he didn't Facebook me, so break yourself!), but Jordan and Donnie were extremely down-to-earth, and they were unbelievably grounded, friendly, and we talked just like a few friends having a beer. Except now I'm legally of drinking age, and 12-year-old me wasn't, and 12-year-old me would NOT have been capable of carrying on any sort of conversation with, like, Jordan Knight's fourth cousin or anyone that proximate to New Kids on the Block, let alone the guys themselves. But talking to Donnie and Jordan was totally not stuffy or pretentious or showbizzy at all. YAY, NKOTB/ New Kids/ The Block, et al.

Ok, so, I'll post the interview later this week (there are a few uh-oh dirty wordies that got through -- shame on you, Donnie! -- so we've gotta magically remove those), so instead, check out these wardrobe photos we snapped while we were waiting for Donnie and Jordan.

Talk to you soon -- I've got a New Kids concert to see! No shame in this girl's game!
